It takes a little imagination and a little patience.and you will get an original exclusive Christmas tree toy. And if you are not lazy, tie a lot of balls in the same style and decorate the Christmas tree with them, the delight of those around you is guaranteed, as is the festive mood! Materials:

threads (“Lace”) – 30 g each,
hook 1 mm,
detachable transparent ball D = 12 cm,
pearls – 6 pcs.

Preparation method:The lace pattern looks especially good on a transparent ball, but any monochromatic one will do. You will need to make two parts. They will be so flexible that they will easily take the shape of a hemisphere. We start by creating a ring of 5 air loops.1st row. We knit 11 double crochets.We make the 2nd row from the same number of double crochets, but we separate them with two chain loops. Please note that at the beginning of the row you need to knit 3 air loops for lifting.3rd row.And again 4 air loops are required for lifting. In this row, the product will take the shape of a six-pointed star due to the alternation of a double crochet stitch and a double crochet stitch, connected by three chain loops.4th row.*5 chain stitches, then – a column at the top of a six-pointed star. After this – 2 chain stitches, 3 chain stitches and again 2 chain stitches*. Repeat the motif highlighted with “*” until the end of the row. This will give you a six-pointed star. When finished, knit 2 more stitches around the ring for ease of transition to another row.5th row.At each top of the star we need to knit a petal, which consists of 5 segments. We will get the slices from a pair of double crochets, knitted together. The first petal will be slightly different, since the first lobe is formed by a chain (the one for lifting) and one double crochet, and the rest - from two double crochets, knitted together. The petals cannot be distinguished visually. Let's move on to the fifth row. Knit 3 loops for lifting and a double crochet stitch together. This is the first slice. Next, knit the motif in “*” four times. *2 chain stitches, 2 double crochets, knitted together*. The first petal is ready. Make the transition to the second petal with two air loops. Knit all the other petals on the tops of the hexagonal star as described in the motif in “*”, but knit the segments in the petals not five, but six. Behind the last petal – two air loops and one connecting post.In the 6th row – still the same slices, but betweenThey already have 5 air loops. Please note that the petals in this row are not connected to each other by air loops (see photo and diagram). To move to another row we need 3 columns.7th row. Change the threads.The seventh and eighth rows are extremely simple – it is simply a net consisting of chains of seven loops each, ending in a stitch. Move to the next row using 5 stitches.8th row. For the last chain in the mesh, knit only 4 chain stitches and one double crochet stitch. Due to this, the hook will be in the middle part of the chain.The 9th row is more difficult than the previous two.Start with three chain stitches. Then knit 1 double crochet stitch, stepping into the third loop of the chain in the eighth row (see diagram). Then – 3 air loops for lifting and a connecting chain of 6 loops. Now be careful, you have to perform an unusual combination. *Twist 3 turns (yarn over) onto the hook, but only knit two loops for now, stepping into the second loop of the chain in the 8th row. In fact, it turned out to be a double crochet stitch, but there were still two loops left on the hook. Wind the hook two more turns, knit two loops again, stepping into the sixth loop of the chain in the 8th row. It turned out to be another double crochet stitch, and there were still two loops left unknitted on the hook. Knit them one by one. You get something similar to the Eiffel Tower, having two legs with one spire. That's the whole difficulty. In conclusion – 6 chain stitches*. The combination between “*” must be repeated 24 times. Now – try on, let's see if our product fits well? Great!10th row. Repeat the 9th row with red threads.Half the ball is ready, we need another onethe same. When both parts of the lace cover are ready, put them on the ball, secure them discreetly with sewing thread and sew on the pearls. Beautiful Christmas tree decoration! In conclusion, here is a diagram.Experienced craftswomen can only look at it to understand everything without further ado. According to the pattern, 9 rows are connected. In the 9th and 10th – connecting chains have been reduced to 6 loops.Master class from Milena
